Adventure race
I am on an adventure race through a green and grand seasonal forest. I am competing against all of my band mates from a band I used to be in. Darren and I are tied for first place. We run through trees, ferns and foliage until we come to a water fall. The spray from the waterfall is cold against my face. We both look over the edge and pace back and forth surveying where it is we want to jump down into the water below. I jump first into a deep area near where the waterfall collects at the base. It is safer but further away from the other side. Darren jumps in a more shallow area but it is closer to the other side of the pool. I have to swim extra fast to maintain my bearing head to head with Darren in the race. As we run out of the waterfall pool we are both knee deep in water running as fast as we can we are pushing and elbowing each other and he manages to push me off balance into a black hole, which turns into Juston's bedroom from high school. The walls are grey and the climate is cool but comforting. Sunlight beams through white mini blinds. I realize that this room is the re-set room where the game we are all competing in will put me back on track with everyone in the game. I see a digital countdown clock with red numbers on the wall. The clock shows me the time until the game resets my position with the other players. I have a few seconds. I start looking around the room for things I can use. I take a wool knit hat because my hat got wet in the waterfall. The hat has a 35mm lens in it.......wake up.
